Blank Contract (2)
“Boo, boo, please?”
Yuan’s nervous voice echoed in the quiet room.
The man’s hand covered Yuan’s small hand.
The touch was so warm that Yuan was afraid that he would be mistaken.
You can’t mistake this person for it. Think of what happened to your sister.
Yuan shook his head, trying to be alert.
Through the messy, untidy hair, I caught a glimpse of her face, dyed in hot colors.
‘Something is noisy.’
The sound of breathing that seemed to fill the room, alternating with the sound of my heart, filled my ears.
It was a room with only two people in the first place, so the sound felt louder.
Maybe it’s because of worry.
Yuan decided to think so.
I am so nervous because I am afraid of what terrible demands this man will make.
She tugged at her thin fingers and tugged at her long, messy hair, which she busily tried to cover her face with.
But there was no significant result.
The reddish face and slightly wet eyes that flickered with Leonhard in his gaze were shyly exposed without being properly covered.
Leonhard thought that Yuan’s swollen nose was cute, and slowly opened his mouth.
“contract. Let’s write one.”
“Ah, the contract… ? which…”
While talking, she remembered a word she had forgotten.
“Ho, are you talking about the star contract?”
Yuan asked carefully.
“yes.”
stellar contract.
A document that grants a kind of compulsory force that binds the constellation.
Yuan is also a constellation, so of course I knew of its existence, and I had heard of it, but it was the first time I actually asked to use it.
“Uh, with what content?”
Yuan’s voice, which had been small at first, became more and more quiet.
Now it was almost audible as an ant crawling.
“It’s nothing special, it’s a small contract.”
Leonhard managed to hear the small voice and answer.
No big deal. Yuan calmed down a little and let go of the tension in his shoulders.
The Star Contract was a powerful restraint that could even threaten the life of a Constellation.
So, there is nothing trivial about the star contract.
Yuan didn’t feel the discomfort in Leonhard’s words and smiled a little.
It was because Leonhardt was smiling.
“A blank contract. For now, just give Yuan’s autograph.”
blank… ?
Yuan opened his eyes wide at Leonhardt’s words.
“Muh, what do you want to write down?”
“I can’t tell you that yet.”
At Leonhardt’s words, a cold feeling ran down Yuan’s spine.
“Ha, but… ”
“I promise you an ample reward. don’t lie It won’t do anything to Yuan. Just because of circumstances.”
Leonhard said in an infinitely softer voice.
His gaze met with the beautiful eyes that were looking at him.
Yuan was startled and hid his face again through his hair.
“Can’t you?”
have to refuse
Yuan’s heart was beating faster than ever. My hands were damp with sweat from the tension.
A small sound of wind flowed out whenever the small lips moved.
If you refuse, maybe this person will be angry.
What if I hit or abuse you?
What passed through Yuan’s mind were the terrible memories he had been through so far.
The pains of the past, which had never been happy, came to mind one by one.
When this happens, the previously hit area throbs and hurts. Arms, legs, stomach and everywhere.
And what happened that day when his skin was burning and his vision was flickering from the mad pain.
His breathing was much louder than before.
His nose was sore and painful because of his heavy breathing.
“I-I… ”
Before I knew it, Yuan was nervously biting his finger.
He looked dangerous as if he would injure his fingers.
Without recognizing that, Yuan’s eyes trembled anxiously through the disheveled hair.
Leonhard’s hand gently reached into hers.
Fearing that she was being beaten, she closed her eyes tightly.
But his hand only touched her other hand as she tousled her own hair.
He squeezed Yuan’s thin, white hand tightly into his hand.
“ah… eww… ”
Yuan, who was holding both hands, was restless, and now his round hips were shaking anxiously around his waist.
“yuan.”
Leonhardt’s low voice calling my name seemed to finally urge me on.
Yuan closed his eyes.
‘I haven’t changed at all.’
I thought it would be a little different from before.
After living a miserable life, he became a god and stood on top of others once.
Although, it was not direct, but I also fought with my sister who was so scared.
But nothing changed. Still timid, stupid… .
In fact, if you think about it, all of those things were just the result of being swayed by others.
To my sister, to God, to fate.
‘My heart hurts… ‘
Suddenly, I felt my chest throb.
I think there will be a panic.
It seemed like it would be easier to just leave it to the other person like before.
If you do what the other person wants, it becomes comfortable. Sometimes there are times when you get a reward.
“All right, all right… Ha, I will.”
Yuan’s voice came out in a small, frightened voice.
Even after confiding in her words, Yuan cried and bowed her head.
Feeling sorry for herself, well-watered tears dripped down her white thighs.
In a miserable mood, Yuan painfully chewed on my tender mouth as if punishing herself. It’s pathetic. I’m so stupid.
Leonhardt’s eyes did not leave Yuan’s crying face.
Those eyes seemed to reprimand him for speaking late, so Yuan lowered his head even more.
“I didn’t even hear what the reward was. It just works.”
Leonhardt’s voice was slightly tinged with fire.
I’m angry. Yuan’s body hardened like stone.
Woah, mad… ? why?
Embarrassed, Yuan sighed.
I said why, but you’re angry…
Maybe the voice was too low to hear.
“… Yes Yes. It’s okay, it’s okay… yo. this.”
Yuan raised his voice a little more in response.
But this time, too, his tenacious gaze did not let go.
“Are you afraid I’ll get angry?”
“… Oh no. no.”
Leonhardt laughed lightly, then let go of Yuan’s hand and gently brushed her hair.
And gently brushed her pale cheeks. His warmth, too hot, lingered on her cheeks.
“I’ll promise. I won’t get angry if you refuse.”
Even after hearing those words, her face trembled with anxiety was very pitiful.
The gloomily drooping eyes and wet, fluttering face looked pretty and painful.
Leonhardt wiped the corner of Yuan’s eye, where tears were slowly flowing down, with his index finger.
“Trust me. I’ll promise. It never hurts and never gets angry.”
He made eye contact with her teary eyes.
Then, slowly, he gently wrapped the back of her head and pulled her towards him.
Naturally, her face was buried in his arms. His body was warmly wrapped in the body temperature beyond his shirt.
Yuan let out a thin breath.
The cold scent that emanated from his body was already familiar to him.
“I will never hurt you.”
Those words made me feel comfortable.
To the point where I want to lean on it endlessly.
It was an infinitely strong temptation for her, who was weak and could not live without someone’s help.
“Le, Leonhard.”
His name barely escaped Yuan’s mouth.
Sad and frightening, the cry that went to her emotions sadly followed.
“yes.”
He spoke kindly, lifting Yuan’s hand.
Red blood was flowing from the thumb that Yuan had bitten off earlier.
You asked so hard. By the time she realizes herself.
Leonhard’s lips touched her fingers.
He lightly kissed it, then lightly brushed the wound on the little finger.
Bloodstains spread, and warm energy permeated the wound. In no time, the wound was gone.
“You can tell me.”
My head was dizzy.
It’s still scary, but better than before.
His embrace was warm, and the scent that tickled his nose was comforting.
Maybe that’s why I gradually developed a strange courage.
I knew that I was the type who was easily swayed by the atmosphere.
But this time it didn’t seem like it would lead to anything bad.
“Ahh… can’t… I think… yo. this.”
Yuan closed his eyes and replied.
“Well done.”
Leonhard combed her untidy hair with his fingers and said.
Her hair was fine, so even if it was messy, it quickly spread out into long, beautiful, straight hair.
said… you said
A sense of accomplishment filled Yuan.
I could properly refuse. I made my own judgment without being swayed by someone else’s words.
he could do it himself I was so happy, my heart was filled with tears.
“yuan?”
Yuan’s mouth opened at the sound of his sweet voice.
But all that came out was a thin cry.
She didn’t know why she was crying or why she was crying, but she still cried.
“… this.”
He met her gaze with concern.
Then, without saying anything, he hugged her.
are you okay. Well done. His kind words reached my ears.
are you okay. are you okay. You did a good job.
Repeating those words over and over, Yuan comforted himself.
“Did you all cry?”
After a while, Leonhard asked while tucking Yuan’s hair that was clinging to her cheek behind her ear.
Yuan nodded his head with a face flushed with tears.
I was a little worried that my swollen face would look ugly.
Contrary to his worries, however, she still had the beauty of a goddess even after crying.
On the contrary, the watery face was even more neat and delicate, and looked fleetingly beautiful.
Yuan, unaware of this fact, became very heated at Leonhardt’s staring eyes.
“Ooh, I cried… It’s ugly. Don’t look.”
“It is pretty.”
“Yes, it is not pretty… ”
“It’s pretty.”
Yuan closed his lips tightly and hid the tears in his burning eyes.
How can you say something like this casually?
A complex emotion welled up inside my chest.
Still, he was a man of words and of keeping his promises.
The fact that he wasn’t really scolded made Yuan happy.
While Yuan was relieved, he thought she had calmed down and opened her mouth.
“yuan. I’m not saying just ask for a contract. Don’t just blindly say no. Listen to the terms.”
Yuan didn’t hear Leonhard’s words as scary as before.
You can say that you can’t do it. Maybe it’s because I knew that.
Yuan calmed down a little more and began to listen to him.
